Two Players Shove Into Marcia Godinez's Aces

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

The action was on Edward Rodger, in early position, who ripped his remaining 110,000 chips into the pot. Armand King was directly to his left and also pushed all in for 360,000. Directly to his left, Marcia Godinez looked down at her cards and moved her remaining 173,000 chips into the middle. It was a three-way all-in, and Godinez had both of her opponents in bad shape.

Godinez: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}
King: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Rodger: {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

The flop came {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{3-Spades} and Godinez had to sweat another king coming. The turn was the {5-Hearts}, and the river brought the {6-Spades}. Godinez eliminated one opponent and damaged the stack of another.

James Woods
James Woods

A player in early position opened to 21,000, and James Woods called from the button. Ed Aulick moved all in from the big blind for 209,000. The initial raiser folded, and James Woods called all in for his remaining 26,000.

Woods was currently in the lead with {6-Hearts}{6-Spades} against Aulick's {a-Spades}{k-Spades}, but the flop came {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}{2-Hearts}, making a pair of kings for Aulick. Woods needed to hit a six or running hearts to stay alive. The turn was the {7-Diamonds}, and the river landed the {2-Diamonds}, and Woods was eliminated.

Before exiting the tournament area, Woods shook many hands, wished everyone luck, and said goodbye to his fellow poker players.

Malacarria Cracks Aces to Survive

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Peter Lockwood was in middle position and raised to 20,000. Richard Malacaria was on the button and moved all in for 19,000. Jon Whitters called in the big blind.

The flop was {q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and Lockwood moved all in after Whitters checked getting a fold from him.

Malacaria tabled {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and Whitters showed {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}.

The turn was the {6-Spades} and Malacaria started calling out asking for an ace or an eight. Wouldn't you know it, the river was the {8-Hearts} and Malacaria cracked aces with trip eights to give himself some much needed chips to fight with.
